What is a 5 MWh container?

This new 5 MWh container demonstrates that we can increase capacity and reduce LCOS, to make the energy transition genuinely affordable.” Due to the more compact design, the 5 MWh container will provide an energy density of 117 Wh/l. That is 46% higher than the 80 Wh/l that can be seen in standard systems based on 280 Ah cells.

How many battery modules are in a 5 MWh container?

It will be outfitted with 48 battery modules based on the manufacturer’s new 314 Ah LFP cells, each module providing 104.5 kWh capacity and designed to meet the needs of large utility scale systems. Due to the more compact design, the 5 MWh container will provide an energy density of 117 Wh/l.

What is the energy density of a 5 MWh container?

Due to the more compact design, the 5 MWh container will provide an energy density of 117 Wh/l. That is 46% higher than the 80 Wh/l that can be seen in standard systems based on 280 Ah cells. The product will also be technically compatible with most top inverter brands’ power control systems, or bidirectional inverters.

What does a 5 MWh battery container mean for LCoS?

This new 5 MWh container demonstrates that we can increase capacity and reduce LCOS, to make the energy transition genuinely affordable.” With 11 GWh of battery products shipped since the company was founded in 2019, Hithium is expanding its production capacity to 70 GWh by the end of this year.

What are the benefits of a Bess containerised energy storage system?

BESS containerised solution will be 8-10% cheaper. Low cost and long life combination will allow for better ROI on energy storage projects, especially for projects with up to 1 cycle per day for 20 years or 2 cycles per day for up to 15 years. 35% more energy can be stored in 20-feet container, up from the traditional design of 3727kWh to 5016kWh.
